The 17-year-old driver accused of fatally mowing down two girls in New Jersey has yet to be charged as an adult — but a lawyer for one of the victim’s family said it was “very reasonable” to upgrade the case.

Attorney Brent Bramnick, who is representing victim Maria Niotis’ loved ones, said Union County prosecutors have 60 days to determine if they want to move Vincent Battiloro’s case from juvenile to adult court as Maria’s distraught mother demanded justice for her and pal Isabella Salas.

As the clock ticks on a decision, Bramnick claimed the alleged maniac driver was connected to a pair of “swatting” incidents at the Niotis’ home in Cranford in September, including one in which Battiloro was confronted by local police outside the home, but didn’t appear to get in further trouble.

Battiloro is facing two counts of first-degree murder, but public information about the case is limited because the matter is currently a juvenile proceeding.

“Based upon the factors that I know, it’s certainly very reasonable for the prosecutors to decide in this case that this defendant should be treated as an adult,” said Bramnick, who is a former Union prosecutor.  

Bramnick told The Post Thursday the family didn’t want to comment on whether Battiloro should be charged as an adult — but he expected prosecutors will consult with them before a decision is reached.

“I want justice for Maria and Isabella, that’s what I want,” Foulla Niotis said through tears in a Fox News interview Sunday. “I want justice for these two beautiful girls.”

The Union County Prosecutor’s Office did not immediately return a request for comment, but previously said it was exploring all legal options.

Battiloro allegedly started harassing Maria with “negative contacts” in March and then ramped up his stalking in September when he called police to the Niotis’ home twice without a reason, an expensive and sometimes dangerous stunt known as “swatting,” Bramnick said.

Both times, the Niotis family pointed the finger at Battiloro, whose father is a former Chatham Borough police officer and uncle is the police chief in Westfield.

During the second swatting situation, Battiloro, of Garwood, was spotted lurking outside the home in his car and was spoken to by authorities, Bramnick said.

Instead of taking him into custody, police told Foulla that Battiloro’s father was going to make sure he went home from the scene, Bramnick said.

The teen driver then drove off, said the lawyer, who stressed his clients want to know why more wasn’t done to prevent the deadly crash.

“Was there an investigation and if there was, what action was taken? At the present time, the family doesn’t know of any investigation or anything that took place,” Bramnick said.

The family is also concerned that Battiloro’s law enforcement ties helped him avoid trouble.

“The law enforcement in the family, he thought he was untouchable because of it,” Foulla alleged during the Fox News interview.

Battiloro’s father retired from the Chatham Borough Police Department in Dec. 2024, the department told The Post.

Westfield Police Chief Christopher Battiloro, the alleged killer’s uncle, has condemned the horrific murders.

In a series of disturbing livestreams in the weeks and months before the crash, Battiloro bashed Maria and her mother, claiming he was falsely accused in school of sending child pornography that got him in trouble

He also ordered pizza pies to the Niotis home around a week before the fatal crash during one of the livestreams he recorded on YouTube, which Bramnick confirmed. 

Battiloro, who was publicly identified through traffic tickets and neighbors, was initially taken into custody the night of the crash before he was cut loose – another questionable move by authorities, Bramnick said.

“Why on that night was he let go? We want to get to the bottom of that as well,” he said.
